Turkish Gazis' (Injured Veterans) Transition into Civilian Life
No full textThe aim of this study was to describe the dimensions of Turkish Gazis' transition to civilian life, to explore the main factors that make this process easier or more difficult, and their psychological integration, that is, specifically, satisfaction with their life. To that end, this study examined the impact of combat-related traumatic stressor (e.g., functional limitations), personal resources (social support, sense of mastery), perceived mental health on Turkish veterans' adjustment into civilian life and their psychological integration. The data was collected in Turkey in 2015 by the researcher with the help of Türkiye Harp Malulü Gaziler Şehit Dul ve Yetimler Derneği, a non-profit veteran organization. The final sample included 240 Turkish Gazis. The level of perceived transition into civilian life and veterans' life satisfaction were the dependent variables in this study. A series of ordinary least squares (OLS) regression was conducted. Hayes' PROCESS macro 3.0 was utilized to measure the direct, indirect and moderation effects of variables on transition and life satisfaction among Gazis. The results demonstrated that perceived available social support, perceived sense of mastery and mental health partially mediated the association between Gazis' functional limitations and transition into civilian life and they fully mediated the association between functional limitations and life satisfaction. Among control variables, only household income predicted transition into civilian life, and place of residence was the only significant predictor of life satisfaction. However, neither social support nor mastery had moderation effect on the relationship between functional limitations and dependent variables. Policy implications and suggestions for further studies are also provided at the end of the dissertation
Identidad y fiscalidad: los gazis de Sevilla ante el pago del Servicio Morisco de 1597
No full textIn this paper the author analyses the resistence of cultural Islamic rooted groups, such as the Mudejares and gazis, to be included in the “Service of Grenadans”, which was created after the expulsion of the Moriscos from the Kingdom of Granada in 1591. Based on studies from different sources, mainly notary records, the paper reconstructs the evolution of the gazi and Berber categories from their presence in the kingdom of Granada as of 1502 until their deportation after the Alpujarras war. The author researches how the interpretation and assessment of these two categories changes depending on the interest and position of the different parties involved in the fiscal equalization process that the Moriscos imposed onto other minor categories of the new converted population in Castilian land during the XVI century. The reluctance of Sevillian Mudejares and gazis to pay the new tax shows the differences existing not only within the Morisco community but also between this community and the rest of the Islamic based population in Castile, due to the diverse geographical origin of each group and the conflicts between the deported Grenadan citizen hierarchies with individuals from different origins and social structures.En este trabajo se analiza la resistencia de grupos de raigambre cultural islámica como los mudéjares y gazis a su inclusión en el «servicio de los naturales del Reino de Granada» creado tras la expulsión de los moriscos de dicho reino a partir de 1591. A través del análisis de diversa documentación, fundamentalmente notarial, se reconstruye la evolución de las categorías de gazi y berberisco desde su presencia en el reino de Granada tras 1502 hasta su ulterior deportación tras la guerra de las Alpujarras. Se estudia aquí la variable interpretación y valoración de estas dos categorías según el interés y posición de los distintos actores implicados en el proceso de homogeneización fiscal que los moriscos impusieron a otras categorías menores de la población neoconversa presente en suelo castellano en el siglo XVI. La resistencia de los mudéjares antiguos y gazis de la ciudad de Sevilla muestra las divergencias que existían tanto en el seno de la comunidad morisca como entre ésta y el resto de gentes de origen islámico en Castilla, que se debían a la diversidad de origen geográfico de su procedencia así como a la colisión de las jerarquías deportadas desde la ciudad de Granada con individuos de otra procedencia y estructuras sociales diferentes

The lexicographical experiments of Korais and Gazis
No full textThe Greek Enlightenment, within the sphere of language, saw the first efforts to create a comprehensive Greek dictionary. This paper deals with Adamantios Korais, one of the most significant Greek scholars of that time, and his endeavours and ideas regarding the renewed lexicon. It also describes and compares a different approach to working on Greek vocabulary in the heyday of the national revival, represented by another eminent intellectual, Anthimos Gazis. The paper notes their individual principal motives, important predecessors, and particular intentions in creating dictionary, and provides a few examples of specific entries viewed differently by these two representatives of the Enlightenment. The approaches of the two scholars differ in their depth and utility; and the more linguistic versus the rather technically specialized contribution to the lexicography task of each will be outlined and confronted.The Greek Enlightenment, within the sphere of language, saw the first efforts to create a comprehensive Greek dictionary.

No full textSampling Guidelines and Recommendations for Submitting Samples for Diagnosing Laurel Wilt in Avocado Trees (Persea americana L.)
No full textLaurel wilt (LW) is a vascular disease caused by a fungal pathogen transmitted to avocado trees by several ambrosia beetle species and through root grafts among adjacent avocado trees. A critical part of preventing and controlling plant diseases is determining the causal agent so that the appropriate management practices can be implemented to eradicate or contain the outbreak. Proper sampling is a critical step in disease diagnosis and in the determination of the causal agent of disease. This new 3-page publication of the UF/IFAS Horticultural Sciences Department was written by Jonathan Crane, Romina Gazis, Jeff Wasielewski, Daniel Carrillo, Bruce Schaffer, Fredy Ballen, and Edward Evans.
